What We Handle
Our local restoration and environmental capabilities include:
Not every property loss calls for every service. We evaluate the exact conditions on-site to build a targeted scope of work rather than treating every home like the same generic cleanup job.
Environmental Realities Impacting Glenwood Structures
Living at the confluence of the Colorado and Roaring Fork Rivers comes with specific structural vulnerabilities.
Having served this region since 2004, we’ve seen how our hyper-local mountain climate impacts buildings:
- Freeze-thaw micro-fractures and bursts. Rapid temperature shifts during mountain winter cycles expand and contract supply lines. While a freeze can cause an immediate high-volume burst, it can also leave hairline fractures in crawlspaces or rim joists that leak quietly into insulation before revealing ceiling stains.
- Rapid ice dam backups. High-altitude winter sun melts snowpacks on roof slopes, sending water down to freezing eave lines. The resulting ice ridges force meltwater upward under shingles and directly into interior wall cavities and ceiling framing.
- Runoff and silt infiltration. Spring thaws and rain events on steep canyon terrain carry heavy silt and water into low-lying basements and ground levels along major corridors like Highway 82 and Grand Avenue. Proper recovery requires clearing sediment alongside deep structural drying.
Why Your Neighbors Turn to Us
- We’ve spent over 20 years learning the ins and outs of local mountain homes, unconditioned crawlspaces, and high-altitude drying behaviors that out-of-town crews often miss.
- We ground every project in industry-standard IICRC practices for applied structural drying, fire recovery, and environmental safety so your home is handled correctly from day one.
- We hold an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau and were honored as the Aspen Chamber of Commerce Business of the Year, alongside consistent strong reviews from the people we serve.
- We prioritize protecting both your household and our crew on every job, maintaining a safety record of just one reportable injury in over 14 years.
What to Do Before Our Crew Arrives
If your property was just damaged, taking a few practical steps right away can help protect your safety and your property:
- Stop the source safely. If it is a clean water leak, turn off the main water valve if you can reach it safely. Do not enter standing water near electrical panels or submerged outlets.
- Document the scene. Take quick photos and videos of affected rooms, flooring, and damaged personal belongings before anything is moved or discarded.
- Avoid handling hazardous materials. Sewage backups, soot, and suspected asbestos require specialized safety gear. Avoid tracking contaminated water into undamaged areas of the home.
- Don't rely on surface appearances. Dry-looking drywall or flooring can still conceal trapped moisture inside wall cavities and subfloors.
From Cleanup to Complete Reconstruction
Managing separate handoffs between a cleanup crew and an independent repair builder adds unnecessary stress to an already difficult situation. As a licensed general contractor, ECOS handles the complete transition from initial water extraction and tear-out through finish carpentry, drywall repair, and rebuilding.
We work directly with your insurance company throughout the process, providing itemized documentation using Xactimate, the standard software required by most major carriers. Because coverage depends entirely on individual policy terms and causes of loss, we keep line-item communication transparent so you always know where your claim stands.
